"If you will, take a trip back with me to 2001 and, would you kindly, try to remember all the gaming related rumors that were revealed in that year. I know that its hard to recollect, but there was one very interesting rumor that I will never forget, and that was the Capcom vs. SNK 3 rumor.
In an interview with Jeux-Actu, Street Fighter IV producer Yoshinori Ono commented on the possibility of Capcom reconsidering the development of Capcom vs. SNK 3. In the interview Yoshinori Ono recalls Capcoms firm focus of unwavering fans of fighting games.
He even goes back far enough recalling being asked about Capcom considering the development of Street Fight IV. With that, he goes into there being a demand for Street Fight IV saying, because fans demanded it they got it, or something along that road. And he says that the same may go for Capcom vs. SNK 3, that if fans demand it."
I remember there were pictures of this game in a magazine with 2 other capcom games that were canceled. One was red revolver or someshit. It was a western style GTA type game that was coincidentally released by rockstar. Anyone have those pics?
Fans had also demanded an SF4, and we got it. If SF4 sells well, this may come to pass. Since Capcom need to license the SNK characters, SNK could make a little profit from this game if done right.
Like ive said before CVS3 in SF4 style would be fuckin awesome… well once SF4 comes out, it’ll be a hit and hopefully we should see more popularity for fighting games (mainstreme/casual gamers).
Yes, and they needed CapUSA to do it. CapJP didn’t give much of a shit, I think. Cvs1-2 were developed by CapJP. Artists were not available to do SF4, so they went the easy polygon route. I don’t want to see a semi-3d cvs…at least, not with the ridiculous facial expressions and cartoony wild takes from sf4.
The 98UM team would do an OK job of it. Don’t judge SNK on SvC Chaos, which they had to do while bankrupt.
The only SNK person you’d have to keep away from the project is Falcoon, unless you want Ken cosplaying as Morrigan, and Guile to wear pink leather, a gimp mask and a cowboy hat.
I also would be opposed to a CvS3 done in SFIV style. I’d prefer to have it done KoFXII style. Actually, I think if they got capcom coders and SNK animators, the resulting games would make me want to touch myself.
